Nintendo has a penchant for peculiar peripherals. Alarmo isn’t so much a peripheral as it is its own stand alone product. Beyond being uniquely Nintendo there are a handful of fun features. There are sensors that track your sleep and let you wake up hands free! Meaning the alarm senses when you get up and shuts the alarm off.

It’s a fun idea that i doubt will go far (RIP LABO). I’d love to see some makers tackle a version of this. Its round but doesn’t even have a circular screen!

Introducing Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo, an interactive alarm clock that’s out of the ordinary! Alarmo responds to your body’s movement with game sounds, so you can feel like you’re waking up in the game world itself. Set an alarm inspired by five Nintendo games, with more alarms on the way as free updates as they become available.

See all our sensors!
